Esperanza A. Rowell v. Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, Inc. et al..

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The Georgia Court of Appeals held that there was no genuine issue of material fact regarding tortious interference because the plaintiff failed to prove malice when privileges were not summarily suspended. The Georgia Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's summary judgment in favor of the hospital and Patten, finding no evidence of malicious intent or a violation of bylaws.
